Compelled to Donate
HI really like what you guys are doing. I know it is tough to be open, fair, and NOT get taken advantage of. As a user I fell more compelled to give when I am allowed to donate what it is worth to me.

Simple Machines Forum Organization in Chaos

Screenshot - 2_10_2010 , 12_41_08 PM_thumb.png
Since the start of DonationCoder in 2005, we have always used and been happy with the free "Simple Machines" (SMF) forum software.  Like all software it has its pros and cons, but it's always worked well for us.

Recently it seems that the SimpleMachines organization has been thrown into some chaos and infighting among founders,owners, developers, users, etc... I don't really have a good grasp of what's going on, only that everyone seems pretty broken up and distressed about it.

Some links:

I don't think there is any real impact on DC at this point, and I don't have a position on these issues since I don't know all of the facts (yet).
